Rsync transfer getting interrupted: msg#00154

sysutils.backup.backuppc.general

Subject: Rsync transfer getting interrupted

On one of my hosts, I'm having constant problems trying to complete a full
or incremental backup run. I always get these messages in the log:

2005-02-22 06:05:38 Got fatal error during xfer (Child exited prematurely)
2005-02-22 06:05:43 Backup aborted (Child exited prematurely)

More detail of the same event:

Xfer PIDs are now 9721
[ skipped 167 lines ]
Can't write 16 bytes to socket
Read EOF:
Tried again: got 0 bytes
finish: removing in-process file Administration/Employee Files
(non-employment)/GEORGE/GLJ Hard Drive Backup/ GLJ Files &
Projects/Cuba/Saved Mail
Child is aborting
Parent read EOF from child: fatal error!
Done: 132 files, 6020567 bytes
Got fatal error during xfer (Child exited prematurely)
Backup aborted (Child exited prematurely)

I've already cranked up the Rsync timeout period pretty stinkin' high on the
BackupPC side. The host is a Win2k Server running the latest Rsync client
off of the BackupPC site. The point at which it disconnects is always a
different file. It just seems like the client side is disconnecting after
only a few minutes of running. Sometimes it doesn't even stay connected
long enough to receive the file list from the client.

Any ideas where I should look to fix this?

TIA
